Try the spirits, whether they are from God (I John 4:1)
Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ...
I John 4
1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Often I can tell which spirit is of God by the "tone of voice" used.
God usually brings me information, options: "Or you could do such and such."
Devils almost always bring fear and torment. "What will happen to you if this happens? What will you do then?"
💥💥💥
According to what it says in I John, 1-3, you can address the spirit directly if you choose to do so: "Do you confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh?"
One time I heard, "You can't talk to a spirit."
And the Holy Spirit said: "God is a spirit and you talk to HIM."

If we don't try the spirits that bring thoughts to our mind, we could end up like a leaf that blows in the wind.
Psalm 1
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in HIS law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
💥💥💥
Can you tell the difference between the voice of God and the voice of devils?
Devils almost always bring fear, doubt, torment.
God brings love, joy, peace.
John 10:10 (Jesus says:) The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
